Gotta remember to binge this again when its completed, Reading each release like this feels like a slog.

Tbf, The One Within the Villainess spent it's whole run showing you how the mc wove the noose for the heroine to hang herself with.

This MC seems to largely just wait and react to the heroine's bs when it shows up. She might prepare but, it waits till things blow up to show it for the most part so far.

I can't say that's necessarily a bad thing but, the former definitely feels better written than the latter for sure.
That makes sense. For The One Within The Villainess, Remilia was out for Pina's blood right from the start. Meanwhile in this one, Lunaria only wanted revenge against her family members and her fiance the prince, and was willing to let Manna go as long as she doesn't cause any problems.

So on one hand, you have an active protagonist since going against the heroine was her goal from the start, and in the other hand a reactive protagonist since going against the heroine was merely a contingency plan.

This is up to chapter 32 on other sites. Why the pitiful slow release?

but shes not really accused of any kind of crime, and theres no proof to back it up, all she has to do is muddle their accusations enough that people cant really say they're true, and since shes going second she gets the last word
In fact, all she need to do here is prove that memory manipulation magic exists and that will be enough to significantly discredit the witnesses. This is probably where that chief of magic research and the school nurse comes it. That said, it won't be enough to pin the fake heroine as the one who casted the magic, since only a janitor who witnessed she was in the library.

Don't you know courtroom dramas? You keep your surprise witness away for the big reveal. "Well, you obviously have a fun idea I might have done this, but none of these men have seen me do it." "Now I call on Janitor John."

Huh, I kind of figured she'd appeal to the friends of the 4 accusers. "So, I've been flirting with them and you all know them individually well enough to know they aren't ones to lie... yet, none of you ever saw me interact with them? None of you remember any of the 4 of them ever talking about me or my interest in them prior to now? I'm the crown prince's fiancé and a duke, and they never talked about this sudden interest I was showing them"

I guess it depends on how long she had the memory manipulation in place, if it's very recent that would hold up, but if it's been in place for awhile that could backfire if they had been talking to their friends about the made up events...

most likely Mana would be smart enough to have them "remember" promising to keep it all on the downlow for those very reasons
